Crème Brûlée
is a classic French dessert with four simple ingredients – cream, vanilla, sugar and egg yolks. It has a rich and creamy custard base topped with a texturally contrasting layer of hardened caramelized sugar. The custard base is traditionally flavored with vanilla but you can make an experiment with other flavorings. This is a very elegant dessert to serve in individual ramekins. The fun part is when you crack the hard caramel topping and it’s breaking through to the firm custard.
Note:
- Make sure to let the custard set for several hours in the refrigerator before brûléeing the top, otherwise you’ll end up with soupy custard.
- If you don’t have a blowtorch, place the custards under a hot grill or oven’s broiler, keeping an eye on them to ensure the sugar doesn’t burn.
